Paul Gustave Dore (January 6, 1832 - January 23, 1883) was a French artist, engraver, illustrator and sculptor. Dore worked primarily with wood engraving and steel engraving. Dore began work as a literary illustrator in Paris. Dore commissions include works by Rabelais, Balzac, Milton, Dante, Lord Byron, and a new illustrated English Bible. In 1863, Dore illustrated Cervantes's Don Quixote, and his illustrations of the knight and his squire Sancho Panza have become so famous that they have influenced subsequent readers, artists, and stage and film directors' ideas of the physical look of the two characters. Dore also illustrated an oversized edition of Edgar Allan Poe's The Raven.
